High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) is short bursts of exercise with brief intervals of rest. This is a great option for those seeking to lower their body fat, heart rate and blood pressure. HIIT has also been known to lower blood sugar and improve insulin sensitivity. HIIT is a great option for those struggling to find the time to fit in a workout, because these workouts can deliver great benefits in less time. Here are ideas for some great HIIT exercises.
High Knees are great cardiovascular and endurance builders. Done between strength exercises, they help maintain an elevated heart rate for fat burning and challenge and improve coordination.
Step Ups activate the quads, hamstrings, glutes and adductors, building overall leg strength and improving balance and stabilization.
